Stretch of railway that got broken last Spring?
Yes, you'd think so, but I thought that was in Wales, maybe there were more bits.

I think the most famous piece was down in the West Country Henry. Why Brunel ran it next to the sea in Dawlish who knows, but it's a pretty journey Mrs BFB tells me - certainly better than hacking down the A30!

Aye, well from the great pleasure of Derbyshire the south coast is getting a fair distance away for me!

It is Dawlish, so where was it taken from?

smile well getting to Dawlish from Derbyshire is about 300 miles, you can get to all sorts of places in the time it takes to drive there! (And a lack of any of our customers is a bit of a slowdown as well, I'd have to pay for it myself - yikes)
